Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..

QuiGon Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 oh wow - so the F16 has been in the works for over 10 years? Not continiously and work has been pretty much restarted at one point as far as I know, but the plan to make a F-16 for DCS is more than 10 years old, yes.

ED Team Wags Posted May 17, 2019 ED Team Share Posted May 17, 2019 I guess the most of the time is spent researching and gathering reliable and unclassified information? When you see what has gone and still going into the F-18 you can understand and respect the development. While a very early cockpit and external model began work many years ago, this was all redone this year as our tech had radically changed. Avionics, flight model, etc. only started in October of last year.

Boris Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Wow! I honestly did not realistically expect to see the F-16 this year.

MrDieing Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Well. This was a bit unexpected, especially with the fuss about the 2019 comment on YouTube that our colleagues at Hoggit created. Great news nontheless, my wallet is also not ready, but it never will be. Everything coming out for DCS must be bought.

So u know when you’re at the Thrustmaster booth in a few weeks, Wags. It might just be worth, giving them a nudge in the right direction for a rerelease, revamped model. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Fighter pilots make movies, Attack pilots make history, Helicopter pilots make heros. :pilotfly: Corsair 570x Crystal Case, Intel 8700K O/clocked to 4.8ghz, 32GB Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4 3200 MHZ Ram, 2 x 1TB M2 drives, 2 x 4TB Hard Drives, Nvidia EVGA GTX 1080ti FTW, Maximus x Hero MB, H150i Cooler, 6 x Corsair LL120 RGB Fans And a bloody awful Pilot :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaceFuel85 Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 I still hold out hope Thrustmaster will update the F-16 TQS and re-release it with the Warthog stick as an updated F-16 HOTAS I know, highly unlikely, but I still hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
